Wow...this was a long one. The previous were long as well but those tended to be full of story building and never felt laborious. This was the first that did. There were times where the book felt like it was going off into some rabbit holes without any direction. And times when something that could have taken 2 pages, took 20. The book is still well written and a great story, just could have used some better editing. Probably the weakest of the 3 books so far, which stinks because the events that happened could have made it the best.
